Sonia Johnson - Monsters

For all the monsters crawling under your bed,
For all the princes that you will never wed,
For all the answers that have been left unsaid,
I’ll wait.

I will stand with a light
Through your nights
Like a guide.
The stars above will be bright,
Just sleep tight.

For all the monsters crawling under your bed,
For all the strangers that you have never fed,
For all the dangers bouncing inside your head,
I’ll wait, I’m awake
I’ll wait, I’m awake.


I’m stronger than those creatures,
I’ll show them what I’ve got.
I’ll carry them in nightmares
Until the door is locked.
They will face their last hour,
I’ll crush them with my thoughts,
I’ll eat them with my fork.

I will stand with a light
Through your nights
Like a guide.
The stars above will be bright,
Just sleep tight.

For all the monsters crawling under your bed,
For all the slaughters for which you’ve never bled,
For all my sisters who have been so misled,
I’ll wait. I'm awake, I'm awake and I'll wait.
